Wishful thinking by guardian.co.uk / guardian.co.uk On November 1, House Science Committee chairman Sherwood Boehlert and ranking minority member Ralph Hall wrote to Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham "to urge you to begin sending a representative to the international discussions regarding the International Thermonuclear Energy Reactor (ITER), which, as you know, is a major fusion research initiative. House urges US ITER action by Fusion Power Report energy source for many years to come, bridging the gap between the period when traditional petroleum and natural gas supplies fade and the time when hydrogen and helium for thermonuclear energy generation become commercially viable, cost effective, and widespread.
